Habitat for Humanity Women's Build

On Saturday November 7th 2026, members of The Women of Waynesville joined Habitat for Humanity for the 2026 WOW Women's Build. We worked on two houses in Jonathan Creek and we were joined by one of the soon-to-be homeowners as our team painted the interior of one house and made a big dent in painting the trim work for that home as well. 

Importantly, we learned that Habitat does not "give" homes away; instead they require a mortgage application by their applicants and the applicants additionally put a lot of "sweat equity" into building their own home. 

Habitat for Humanity is such an important organization for those with modest financial means who exhibit the willingness to put their financial life in order and roll up their sleeves to assist in building a home for their family - Women of Waynesville could not be more proud to partner with Habitat!
